The left has messed up with regard to getting rid of homeschooling.

They should have stopped it way before we got organized and formed the HSLDA and before the ACLJ came to prominance.

I wasn’t a homeschool fan until I started realizing just how far the public system had declined. My wife convinced me. She quit her job (cutting our income in half) two months before our first child was born. We’re going to homeschool, and also protect their hearts and minds from modern “liberal” indoctrination through a firm foundation of reason and morality.

It took a long time but I finally got my husband convinced to home school. I followed many FReeper’s advice & showed him thread after thread. The final straw for him was when the school nurse did not call home to tell us our 8 yr old daughter was hit in the mouth with a hockey stick. I just happened to find out when I called to see if she had been given her inhaler treatment & my daughter was in her office. We are trying to let her finish the year. That nurse is just useless. We are now getting books etc together & talking to local home school families. I never thought it would happen but thankfully it has.
